1) Paperback Book Adobe Flash CS3 Professional On Demand by Que. As a web developer, I often have designers come to me with a Flash movie they have recently made. In my experience, sometimes their movie just works on the web, and sometimes it does not. I was hoping to understand why that is from this book.
The chapter on publishing Flash movies is well done. The page layout is nice and easy to read. The majority of the chapter is dedicated to explaining the different publishing options available from the menu. That was great instruction and now I will know some options to look at if I run into problems.
However, I was hoping for more information related to troubleshooting and some examples of common problems when publishing to the web. The designer who brought me the movie knows the design part of using Flash, and I know web programming, but it seems there is missing information in the middle that neither of us know. The designer expects me to know what to do because I´m the ´web guy.´
So, the book was good at explaining menu options, but I will have to look elsewhere for information about troubleshooting web publishing.¤ 2) Paperback Book Adobe Flash CS3 Professional On Demand by Que. This is a good book for an absolute beginner who wants to make simple motion graphics.
I had trouble finding anything in here that wasn´t in Flash 5 or MX.¤ 3) Paperback Book Adobe Flash CS3 Professional On Demand by Que. Excellent book. I found this book hits the essential of each feature in a succinct and comprehensive way. Very complete desktop reference. I use it every day.¤ 4) Paperback Book Adobe Flash CS3 Professional On Demand by Que. For those of you migrating from Actionscript 2 to 3 DO NOT BUY this book. Willy nilly though out the authors mix in older code with new code. Has a chapter on behaviors that is no longer supported. There are much better books out there.
I bought it and returned it.¤ 5) Paperback Book Adobe Flash CS3 Professional On Demand by Que. I am the author for this book. Out of respect for Andy Anderson´s high level of contribution to the previous versions of this book (for which he was fully compensated), I included his name on this updated title. Future reprints of this title will be changed accordingly with the publisher.
In regards to ActionScript 3.0, this title walks you through the use of ActionScripting, but it is not a book on writing AS 3.0 code, which is out of the scope of this beginner to intermediate level book. As an author, I welcome any specific corrections that are needed to make the next printing a better book.
